No one has yet shown any clear cut proof with regards to a partiular car that has sold for more money simply because it sold originally from any given dealer.

Now you are really joking aren't you? I guess you have never heard of Gibb, Nickey, Baldwin, Yenko, etc....

Of course I have heard of them. I was selling Dodges new in 1968-74 and I suspect it was probably before you were born.
It just makes no sense to me. A car's value should be based on it's condition and model regardless of WHO sold it. If the documentation to prove what the car is happens to also determine what dealer sold it that should have no bearing on it's value.
What is missing here is that I believe ALL of these hipo COPO cars WERE sold by ONE of these dealers so how can you assign partiular value from one dealer over another? If one of these cars surfaces that could be documented and it showed that it was sold in some farm town dealership that also sold tractors would it be worth more or less?
